Can your kids excel at maths? Yes they can—even if they’re not doing so well just now. John Mighton’s inspiring, empowering program, with its combined emphasis on confidence building and pure fun, brings out the mathematician in even the most discouraged students.

The Myth of Ability outlines Mighton’s acclaimed JUMP program (Junior Undiscovered Math Prodigies) and tackles head-on the fallacy that maths is only for those who are born to it. Anyone can do maths, says Mighton—and enjoy it.

Praise for The Myth of Ability:

‘John Mighton understands the power of simplicity. He understands patience. He understands the language of maths. His approach to teaching maths is obvious, and no one’s ever thought of it before. The Myth of Ability is so fresh that it's revolutionary.’

— John Marsden
